After Interact 2013 in Mumbai last month, distributor E-xpress Interactive will hold a trade marketing event for the north India region this month.

Along the lines of Interact, the aim of Connect is to expose E-xpress' 2013-14 line-up of games to retailers and other trade partners in the north India region.

At Connect, the company will hold presentations showcasing its upcoming games from publishers such as Square Enix, Warner Bros, Sega, Take-Two, Bethesda, Namco Bandai, and Ubisoft.

Interact is now a highly successful event, where we have been able to bring national retailers and international publishers on one platform. To grow the gaming industry, it is very important that we also bring retailers and channel partners at the regional level into the mainstream,” E-xpress CEO Anand Khemani said. Connect is essential to create a strong eco-system around the gaming industry and it will take gaming to the masses.”
